Abstract

게임은 IT 기술의 발전에 따라 그 형태, 종류, 방식이 다양해져 왔다. 즉, 새로운 IT 기술에 대한 이해는 차세대 게임 동향 예측을 가능하게 한다. 최근, 소프트웨어 및 하드웨어 기술의 진보로 가상현실(Virtual Reality: VR) 및 증강현실(Augmented Reality: AR) 기술이 적용된 다양한 애플리케이션들이 등장하고 있다. 큰 규모의 시장을 형성하고 있는 게임 업계에서도 그 VR/AR 기술을 게임 개발에 이용하고자 하며, 일부 업체들을 중심으로 몇 가지 상용 게임이 이미 출시되었다. 본고에서는 차세대 게임을 위한 VR/AR 기술 및 게임 서비스 현황을 살펴보고, 향후 VR/AR 게임의 발전 방향에 대해 전망한다.
